Around the time of the air date for this episode, a Cleveland newspaper columnist leaked the news that the series was "one of those shows said to be headed for cancellation". David Janssen had secretly asked the producers around that time that his contract not be renewed for another season because of the physical and mental affect the grueling work schedule was having on him for the past four years.
In an acting career that spanned nearly seven decades and well over 100 different roles, Celeste Holm appears only one other time with David Janssen, an appearance that is also a part of this same series: The Old Man Picked a Lemon (1965).
This is the third and final appearance Ray Kellogg makes in the series, one other time also a character in law enforcement: Search in a Windy City (1964). His only other appearance is as a truck driver in Never Stop Running (1964).
This is the sixth and final appearance Jason Wingreen makes in the series, each time playing a different character.
This is the third and final appearance Harold Gould makes in the series, each time playing a different character. The other two appearances occur in Man in a Chariot (1964) and Wings of an Angel (1965).
